Cross-border emergency patient transport is not possible

Obstacle

Emergency patient transport by ambulance from one country to another is not solved.

Answer

Healthcare belongs to state responsibility, so differences between the countries such as mismatched legislative backgrounds, dissimilarities in material and personnel conditions and the issue of funding for deployments make it very difficult to tackle the problem. One of the main objectives of this project is to overcome this obstacle in the framework of a Hungarian-Slovak cooperation, following previous similar examples in Europe.
